Thanks Ron, Iโll have a look at DF accessories, though having found I have the machine screw I might use some carbon fibre plate I happen to have as a solution. Definitely got me thinking there is a more elegant solution than drilling a hole in the fin and using a pin as suggested in the plans.

Coating with glass cloth and Ezekote is quicker and cleaner, and no smell.
All my wooden hulled models are done this way. Cheers Colin. ▲

I would definitely sheath the hull with epoxy and glass.

Have previously finished hulls with a layer of glass fibre cloth and epoxy. Then smoothed it all down.
What are the groups thoughts on this technique as will be doing another hull shortly? It is very labour intensive. ▲
